Boss Street or Anorexic Boss Street?

[manix J]

Cabs!

Thanks everyone for your input -- the anorexic is the clear favorite!

Not to derail my own thread, but which would you prefer between the two thicker (.22") versions -- flat (Proto) or hollow ground (Custom Shop)?

I have a stripped CG (I hate not seeing the metal!), a CS Ivory G-rex, and a CS hollow-ground, all in my carry rotation. I gotta say, the hollow-ground with my own convex edge is the sharpest Busse I own. I love it as a slicer and EDC, because I am such a sharpness snob. If I was a farm or more rural guy, I would probably stick to .220 models.

Of course, now that I have a Scrapivore necker with a prybar pommel carried at the same time, I can do almost anything!

My Proto Boss Street is slightly thinner than the coated version and works great for me, its stout but still slices great.

So (!) the Boss Street Proto is good, the Hollow Ground is good, the Anorexics are good.

This ... is ... getting ... EXPENSIVE!!

And I thought I was cured ...
